Functions of the Village Forum

·      

All residents of the Village are invited to a meeting held by the Residents Committee on the last Friday of each month. This meeting is called the Residents Forum.

·       Forum gives all residents the opportunity to speak out about issues relating to the running of the Village.

·       At this meeting a representative from each Sub Committee presents a report on the activities of his or her Sub Committee. Our Activity Groups also report on their activities for the month.

·       The meeting is chaired by the Residents Committee President, with the Forum Secretary taking notes to issue minutes to all residents in the week following the meeting.

·       Residents wishing to raise an issue or speak at Forum can do so by sending a request to the Forum Secretary.

·       Business relating to the everyday running of the Village is discussed and ballots are taken on various motions as required by the NSW Retirement Villages Act.

·       The President will also discuss General Business that may have arisen from the Residents Committee meeting held on the Monday prior to Forum.

·       Each month a representative of management is invited to address the Forum after the close of business.

·       Management can only attend Forum by invitation and are never present whilst the business meeting is going on.

·       The right to hold meetings without interference from management is enshrined in the NSW Retirement Villages Act and our operator always respects these rights.
